I went here and by luck got seen by Dr. Love. He is very friendly and professional. I was very pleased w/ my eye exam. He even was considerate in thinking about cost and didn't push to do a contact lens fitting for a new brand of contacts b/c it would be expensive , so instead favored to use my current brand even though it was an older style. He even recognized me a few wks later when I came back to pick up my new glasses. The opticians there are also very helpful and friendly - don't push for the expensive glasses. I can only wish I could find all medical professionals that are as good as Dr. Love. I would definitely recommend him 100%!
Pros: Professional, great service, friendly
Cons: can't think of any

I have a reocurrent eye disease. Due to its random and potentially damaging nature, I often need to be seen by Dr. Demaree on very last minute notice. I have always been fit it her schedule, often same day, without being made to feel like I am "a bother". My wife changed to Dr. Demaree's office after seeing the quality of care. I will even have my child become a patient this summer, when she has her first eye exam. I was recently seen by a eye disease specialist at Dr. Demaree request. The specialist said during my exam, "I often see a lot of scaring in eyes with this disease. Your eyes have very little damage. You and Dr. Demaree have been 'on top' your treatment. You have received good medical care." As long as I live in the Portland area, she will be my family's eye doc.
Pros: Quality care, Flexible scheduling
Cons: Docs also work at other locations too. So, they are not at the same office everyday

My 11 year old with Asperger Syndrome happened to see Dr. Demaree for the first time for a recheck on a minor eye problem. His file explained that he was autistic and has sensory issues, he also gets nervous around doctors which many kids do. My mother accompanied him to this appt. since I could not. Dr. Demaree was short tempered and impatient with my son when he tried to explain how his eye was progressing. People with autism are typically very literal and my son tried to answer her questions since he is used to doctors talking with him directly. She snapped at him and told him that he was old enough to know when to stop talking when she wanted to talk with an adult. My mother was shocked at the tone of her voice and her approach. Dr. Demaree abruptly left the room in the middle of the consultation without explanation and after waiting, they had gotten their coats on figuring that she had ended the appointment prematurely. She came back in to continue but did not offer any excuse or apology. Both my mother and son felt very badly about the treatment that they received. If this is her idea of how to treat patients with special needs then we don't need her. We would NEVER consider using Hawthorne Vision again.

i have been seeing dr. demory and her staff for two years. they are wonderful and helpful. the glasses in the shop are competitivly priced and the staff are wonderful and knowlegeable.
Pros: location, parking, friendly service
Cons: it is next to that awful reynolds place that is just horrible and pakes all eye places look bad.
